I bought 4 (2 of each color in his size) of these in different colors for my son. I had also ordered some from a major company in several colors and had to return them. These fit so much better and the fabric was great. I cannot find the Hanes Beefy Tees locally. And I could not believe the pric...

Question & Answer

I think they shrink a little, but that has not been a problem. If they shrink, it is not enough to make them unwearable.

Yes it does.

Hanes claims that these T's won't shrink up like most cheaper cotton shirts, but just to be safe, I don't usually leave them in the dryer for more than a few minutes. After that, I put them on a hanger and let them air dry.....a little extra work, but I never worry about shrinkage.

I tend to line-dry things if possible, so I don't know. Would guess some shrinkage, over time, but not a lot. But that's a guess!

I have had these shirts for a while now and have been through multiple wash/dry cycles.
I have not noticed any significant shrinkage.

If the fiber content is 100% cotton, it will always shrink in the dryer and also slightly when washing in warm-hot water. The shrinkage was no more than any other articles of clothing I own that are 100% cotton. If the fiber content is not 100% cotton, it will shrink a bit less. The only way to avoid shrinkage when washing, is to wash in cool and hang dry. Hope this helps.

Not that we've noticed.

No, I never had any shink at all. I wash in warm and then put into dryer. Never had a problem.

These t-shirts are well made and 100% cotton. They will shrink slightly in length, but not a great deal. They retain their shape well after repeated wash/dry cycles.

It is not yet erased. But the quality I really liked it. The fabric is thick and soft to the touch. The size is the same.

Yes, gradually over time. There is no noticeable shrinkage after each wash but over time you will notice that the shirt is a bit tighter than when it was new.

I have bought several of these shirts and have washed them dozens of times as I wear them to work. I haven't seen pilling on any of them.

So far, so good. But I can't say that I've had it and washed it long enough to REALLY know. But so far....no. This was a fantastic buy! The shirt isn't whimpy.

no. it does not pill.

Answered on 3/10/2014 6:00:32 PM by bill from sacramento

Not so far, and I've been wearing them as work shirts for about a year.

They've been holding up well. My husband loves his STP Hanes Beefy T's. We picked only 100% cotton ones, wash in cold water and line dry or put in dryer for only a few minutes. No pilling yet, after a few washes.

Not that I have seen, no.

No, this shirt doesn't pill. My husband has been wearing these shirts for years and they are fabulous. They hold their shape, don't pill, don't fad and wear forever. Can't beat Sierra's price either. You won't go wrong ordering these. My only suggestion is: Oder several ! ! !

No ! It doesn't pill, fad or any of those things. It holds it's shape and color and wars forever ! !

I cannot answer that question as the shirts I purchased have not yet been washed.

I purshased several the Hanes beefy-T Shirt Xl, all colors. They go into the wash with other stuff every week. They all go in together, normal wash hang them out to dry or tumble dry with other garments and have never seen them pill. Wear well also hold their shape. No need to iron, just fold and put away. I get comments from my friendshow well they look.

They are 2nds. 2nds are items with barely perceptible blemishes or slight irregularities that do not affect fit, performance or longevity such as an error in the stitching or a slight fading of the productâ€™s color. Labels on 2nds are usually clipped or marked by the manufacturer, and 2nds are often offered at lower prices.
